Note: The earliest coinage of Karauli State closely follows the style of Jaipur, but can be distinguished by its unique fabric and calligraphy. In 1785 AD, the Maha rajkumari of Karauli married Rao Raja Bishen Singh of Bundi, and it is likely that gold coins were specially struck as a traditional wedding gift for the occasion.

No other major events are recorded during this period, supporting the theory that these coins were prepared for the wedding. This NAZARANA Mohur, issued in the name of Shah Alam II, matches the design and dies of the silver rupees of that era, confirming its ceremonial nature rather than use in regular currency. A few die-identical pieces have surfaced over time, mostly ex-mount, further indicating they were struck for an auspicious event. Intact specimens not showing signs of mounting are considered Extremely Rare.
